I know that I'm a little late but just wanted to say I sat on a heating pad 24/7 for 7 months and almost did permanent damage to my back side. My CRS freaked when she saw it and I really didn't realize that you can damage the skin permanently. So even though they are very helpful w/ fissure pain, be careful about high settings for long periods of time. I was told 20 min on lowest setting then off for 40 I believe.... My butt still has marks that are fading and I quit the heating pad 2 months ago.
